Joe Dunne confirmed that Barry Corr was substituted with a groin problem during Cambridge United’s 3-1 victory over Grimsby Town.

Corr left the pitch after just 40 minutes, having been involved in the build-up to the U’s first goal – nodding David Forde’s goal kick into the path of Uche Ikpeazu who produced a smart finish to open the scoring.

The 32-year-old, who didn’t make the match day squad against Chesterfield on Tuesday, was replaced by Dave Amoo who went on to assist George Maris for the game’s third goal.

And Dunne said that, while they don’t know the severity of the injury, they didn’t want to take any chances.

“He just felt a bit stiff in the groin, just a touch,” Dunne said.

“But that’s understandable - we don’t know the severity but we wouldn’t want to take any chances.

“Hopefully he’ll still be available for us under time but that’s down to the medical staff.”
